Seattle, WA

Erik and I took a long weekend get away to Seattle. We left Wednesday afternoon and returned home Sunday evening. It was the perfect amount of time to sight see and relax!

One of our first stops- The Original Starbucks in Pike Place Market

The roast that made Starbucks a hit around the world!

We rented a car and took a quick day trip to the Snoqualmie Waterfalls. I originally wanted to go to Mount Rainier but unfortunately the weather did not agree with that plan! The waterfall was wonderful and we had an amazing time drinking Irish Coffees snuggled up together.

We enjoyed restaurant and bar hopping all over the city. Friends gave us tons of recommendations, from classy Elliot's Oyster House to a crass hole-in-the-wall Biscuit Bitch, we enjoyed them all!

Lots of champagne was consumed at Oddfellows!

Thanks for the great memories Seattle!

Atomic Habits Bullet Points

 CH 1: 1% analogy- focus small Progress- an ice cube doesn't melt, even when it heats up from 20-31 degrees, that one degree makes a difference, however, the other 11 degrees weren't wasted effort, they were stored progress/potential Plateau of Latent Potential - where most people give up- right on the cusp of success Forget Goals- focus on system instead The goal takes care of itself when the systems are in place Goals met are temporary and at odds with long term progress (yo-yoing)
